Overview

The Chemical Health Risk Assessment (CHRA) is a mandatory requirement under the USECHH Regulations 2000 for workplaces using chemicals hazardous to health. The CHRA must be conducted by a DOSH-registered Occupational Health Doctor (OHD) or a team that includes one, and must be reviewed every five years or when significant changes occur.

MEDSS coordinates and supports the CHRA process — from chemical inventory compilation and exposure pathway analysis to the formal assessment and DOSH-compliant report.

Key Benefits

Legal compliance

Health surveillance basis

The CHRA determines which workers need biological monitoring and medical surveillance.

Control effectiveness

CHRA findings identify where existing controls are inadequate and workers remain at risk.

Who needs this service
